Boss Tactics
Here are your best bets for beating the Pokemon Gym Leaders:
Brock: Use water or grass Pokemon against this rock trainer.
Misty: Use grass pokemon or electric to defeat this gym leader.
Leiutenant Surge: use a rock or ground pokemon and he's toast.
Erika: Use fire pokemon or flight against this plant lover and shatter
her dreams of fighting you again.
Sabrina: Use bug or ghost against this psychomaniac and she is a
goner.
Koga: This poison pokemon lover will be deafeted easily by using
psy pokemon.
Blaine: This fire trainer will use fire pokemon against you so you can
use water or ice.
Final boss: Giovanni, the team rocket leader, is the final gym leader
- use water, ice, plant and he's out of there (and talk to him again
and he says something to you).
In the Indigo Plateu you find 5 pokemon masters. Use this pokemon lineup
for a better chance of success:
1.Plant
2.Water, Plant, Flight, Ice
3.Psy
4.Ice or Dragon
5.Your choice
Good Luck!
Celadon City Slot Tip
All of the slot machines have different odds, which change every time. Play
each machine 4 times, and if it hits 2 or more, then stick with that one,
because it's probably hot.
If the slow machine forces you really close to a 777 or Bar Bar Bar it will
probably give you one or the other soon.
Clone Pokemon
Note: This trick requires a nother Game Boy, link cable and
Pokemon game.
Trade the Pokemon to be cloned, and have the other player select a
Pokemon that he or she does not care about. Trade them, and make sure
the player receiving the bad Pokemon can see the other player's screen.
When the Game Boy that receives the good Pokemon's displays
"Waiting", get ready to shut the other Game Boy off. When the "Waiting"
message disappears, turn off the Game Boy that is receiving the bad
Pokemon. When the "Trade completed" message appears, turn off the
remaining Game Boy. Both games will have the same good Pokemon
when they are turned back on.
Note: Do not attempt this trick with any saved games you wish to
keep, as it can corrupt those files if done incorrectly.
Cut Down Grassy Areas
Once you get the HM "cut", your pokemon can cut down grassy areas.
Use "cut" and it will cut a two by two area. Wild Pokemon will not attack
you in the area you cut.
Duplicate Items
To get 99 of any item, first put the item you want to multiply in the sixth
item slot. Now use FLY and go to Viridian City. Talk to the old man
almost all the way north of the town. When he asks if you are in a hurry,
say no and watch him catch a weedle.
Right after that, fly to Fuchsia city. Make your way south and, when you
you reach the water's edge, use SURF and make your way to Seafoam
island.
When you get to seafoam island, swim up and down the beach until you
run into a Pokemon called "M" (Missingno.) Once you see him, kill him or
run away. DO NOT CATCH HIM! After that, you should have multiple
copies of your sixth item!
Easy Level Gain
To easily gain experience, simply switch the Pokémon you want to train
with the top Pokémon on your list. When you go into battle the Pokémon
will pop out. You can then switch to another Pokémon. Once you win the
battle the beginning Pokémon and the fighting Pokémon will both gain
experience points.
Fight Land Creatures in Water
To fight creatures that normally live on land in water, go to the water
around Cinnabar Island or Seafoam Islands (The only place you can be
randomly attacked while swimming.) Swim along the shore of any island
and you will fight land creatures. (You have to swim on a place where the
square is half land and half water.)
Instead of fighting a set group of monsters in the water, you actually fight
monsters from the last place you were. So to get safari zone monsters, you
need to go to the section of the safari zone with that monster, let your time
run out, then go to the coast. Using this trick I have caught Kangaskhan,
Scyther, and Tauros!
Fight the Elite Four More Than Once
First collect all eaight badges. Then go through victory road. Next beat the
Elite Four. After that your Pokemon will become Hall of Famors. Then the
credits will show, following by your game resetting. Go back to your
Continued Game. You will be back at home. Then fly back and beat them
again and again. This helps your higher leveled Pokemon becaus you can
still get a few thousand exp.
Get Amnesia Psyduck
Have you ever wondered how you can get the elusive Amnesia technique?
Well, it's hidden deep in Pokemon Stadium for the Nintendo 64.
Unlocking it will take a while, but it's definitely worth it. You have to
register ALL 151 Pokemon in the Hall of Fame. Whenever you beat a
tournament (or Gym Leader Castle), your six Pokemon are entered into
the Hall of Fame. It doesn't matter whether you use rental Pokemon or
your own, but you can't have any gaps. Once you've filled it all up, you are
awarded a free Psyduck bonus Pokemon that knows the Amnesia
technique. You can now upload it to your Game Boy pak and use it in
your quest.
Get Mewtwo
After you have gotten all eight of your badges you need to go beat the
pokemon league. The credits will roll and then the menu pops up again.
DO NOT RESET THE GAME!!!! Go to Cerulean Citygo north to the
brige where you faced 5 trainers before the path to Bill's house. Turn left
and there will be a large area of water. Surf until you get to a cave. You
will find Mewtwo in that cave.
Get MissingNo.
Warning! Catch missingno in the red version may delete your old game
and prevent you from saving any other games.
To get MissingNo (a glitch) go to Cinnabar Island and go into the
Pokémon Research Labratory and trade with anyone in the first room.
Then leave the Lab and go to the EAST of Cinnabar Island and surf up
and down on the part where the land meets the water. Eventually the battle
screen will come up and the screen goes black for about 5 seconds.
Once you find him I suggest you use a Level 30 to 40 Pokemon. This is
because Missing No., even at Lv. 80, has a VERY low defense rating. So
get him down pretty low. Even at low he is still extremely difficult to catch.
So next get a Pokemon that knows a sleep move and put him to sleep.
Follow this up with a couple Ultra Balls and you should have him.
NOTE: Catching MissingNo. may cause minor glitches. Also note that if
he evolves (i.e., by receiving a Rare Candy) he will turn into a
Khangiskahn.
Get Surfing Pikachu
Did you know that you can get a Pikachu that knows the Water technique
Surf? Here's how you can get it (outside of winning a Nintendo Pokemon
contest):
Surfing Pikachu is hidden in Pokémon Stadium for the Nintendo 64. To
teach your Pikachu Surf (a technique it can normally not learn), you need
to first unlock the R-2 (Round 2) mode. Then do the following:
Enter the R-2 Prime Cup's Master Ball division (you have to beat
the first three divisions first).
Assemble a team that contains a Pikachu that does not yet know
Surf. You HAVE to use a Pikachu from your Game Boy game.
You cannot unlock Surfing Pikachu using a Rental Pokémon.
Do not register your team! Pick it directly from your Game Boy
cartridge.
You now have to beat the Prime Cup's Master Ball division using a
three-Pokémon team that always contains Pikachu. Pikachu has to
be in every one of the eight battles.
You are not allowed to use any continues. If you do, you won't get
Surfing Pikachu.
Once you have fulfilled all the above conditions, you are shown an award
screen with Pikachu standing on a surfboard. From here on, Pikachu can
use the Surf technique both in battle and during gameplay (Game Boy
versions only). In Pokémon Yellow, you can now also access the hidden
Surfing Pikachu mini-game on Route 19.
There is also a GameShark code that lets you access Surfing Pikachu, but
we advise against using it, since it can mess up your Pokédex and save
data. It's not worth the trouble.
Get the Mimic TM
Buy a Pokedoll in Celadon Mart, then FLY to Saffron and talk to the
Copycat. She will give you the Mimic TM.
Invisible Walls in Koga's Gym
If you look at the floors in Koga's Gym you will notice it has lines. In some
spots you will see little gaps in the lines. These "gapped lines" are the
invisible walls.
Level 100+ Pokemon
Follow these instructions to catch pokemon with really high levels.
1.Talk to the old man in Viridian City who shows you how to catch
pokemon.
2.Fly directly to Cinnabar Island.
3.Put your strongest pokemon on your team.
4.You might want to save now.
5.Surf on the shore where the land touches water.
6.Keep Surfing until you run into one of these strong pokemon.
These pokemon are well above level 100. Unfortunately, they will revert
back to Level 100 if they gain any experience points. Rare Candy is the
only thing that raises their level. They can be used in a two-player battle
without losing their level, so have fun liquidating your friends!
NOTE: This is a bug in the game. It will not work in newer versions of
Pokemon and may crash your game if you try it.
Only Way to Get Mew
We've seen so many fake Mew codes pop up on the web (and we get
about 20 new fake Mew code submissions A DAY) that we've decided to
add this following disclaimer to our codes section:
According to Nintendo, Mew cannot be found or caught in Pokemon
Yellow, Red, or Blue. Outside of a GameShark code (which may mess
up your Pokedex and render the game incompatible with Pokemon
Stadium), the #151st Pokemon remains a cool litte extra that is only
handed out by Nintendo on special occasions, such as Mall Tours or
Pokemon events.
However, all those who want to catch a glimpse of the rare Pokemon can
select Mew as a rental Pokemon in Pokemon Stadium for Nintendo 64
(but you cannot upload it to your Game Boy game). Note that Mew is just
that -- a bonus Pokemon (albeit a very cool one that can learn all TMs) --
and not technically required to complete your Pokedex.
Secret Coins
At the Game Corner there are secret coins lying around. You can get these
coins by walking around and pressing the A button. |
